dollars to doughnuts you are correct.

Many qood threats etc. deleted...

There have been many of those. I have a good for you. This is reply from Janis 
to John Souvestre.

Do you know how I see this entire affair John?  I don't think you do, so I am 
going to be very specific.  Throughout your history in Fidonet, you have either 
gotten things done "your way", or you belittled, harrassed and harped on the 
other party until they either left Fidonet, or gave up in digust.  If they had 
the fortitude to continue anyway, you created "another" filebone.na, "another" 
backbone.  And now you are threatening to create another routelist?  I'll tell 
you what.  If you don't drop this problem you have with Foxy and truly try to 
work with her, and if you don't stop threatening to create another routelist, 
you may find your Z1B left in the dust.

//End quote

Look at that last sentence. I've been thinking about this one for a while now. 
Could this have been the method to leave the Z1B in the dust? We see an 
alternate route list produced last week and then this...

No it wasn't an accident.

Of course I hope that you are wrong. But you probably are not.
